clowd··on Cloudflare has dropped the Daily Stormer
I'm not downvoting, but I also won't upvote a comment which calls for imprisoning people for their speech or beliefs. I suspect some of the downvotes are a response to that suggestion.

In the US, it's not illegal to be a hateful, closed-minded asshole. The rest of us might shun you, but you shouldn't go to prison for it.

clowd··on Simply Secure PHP Cryptography
Yeah, it's not like more than half of all websites run PHP, or anything...
clowd··on Cloudflare Reverse Proxies Are Dumping Uninitialized Memory
The effort you're putting into cleaning up someone else's mess cannot be understated, nor can it be sufficiently appreciated. Thanks!
clowd··on Richard Garriott: the man, the myth, the mischief
Interested to see what Shroud of the Avatar will be like, whenever it's finished. I got thousands of hours of entertainment from Ultima Online, and Shroud is said to be "UO 2 with a different name." He makes a good point that the Steam audience is a different beast; as a whole they aren't very tolerant of alpha releases, with good reason.
clowd··on I Had My Electronics Seized by U.S. Customs and Border Protection

Welcome to America, your cell is down the hall...

clowd··on You can't disable Google AMP
Firefox 51.0 for Windows, with the default user-agent, I get amp.google.com links scattered through my search results. Seems extra prevalent when I'm searching for news items, a lot of TV news station articles will come back with AMP URLs.
clowd··on Let’s Encrypt 2016 in Review
I'm going to go with "y axis" but it's just a guess.
clowd··on You can't disable Google AMP
What I find annoying is that searching Google on a desktop or laptop still returns a lot of AMP results. They're supposed to be Accelerated Mobile Pages, it would be nice if they'd filter them out when searching from a standard PC.
clowd··on Deleting the golang subreddit
There's this: http://redd.it/4ze7gm

Disregard the title as it's not a "botnet." It's a user script that adds functionality to RES: automatically upvote everything in The_Donald, automatically downvote everything in other subreddits, and allows importing lists of specific users to up/downvote.
